Very loving dog but gets very anxious with new situations. Very playful and happy. He needs a place that is stable and has room for him to protect his area. Needs room to run and roam. He barks at anything that is out of place but really isn't a nuisance, he is just a typical Anatolian. It may take him awhile to adjust to new owners. He is skeptical of meeting new people. He is primarily an indoor dog and does have a large crate that he rarely uses.

Tucker is a 1 year old Australian Shepherd/ Cattle dog mix that is about 55 pounds. Tucker is a little shy around strangers, but once he warms up to you he is a total love bug! He is a very intelligent, well trained dog who would benefit from an owner who could take him to obedience classes or would like to teach him agility. He is an active boy that would make a great walking or jogging partner and he does great with other dogs! If you think Tucker may be the guy for you go to www.DogsbyDebin.com to fill out an adoption application and then stop by our shelter during the hours listed on our site!! Tucker's adoption fee is $150 and includes ... (Read More)his neuter, vaccinations, microchip, heartworm test, deworming, and an offer for 30 days of free pet insurance!! (Less)

Bubba is great with kids & adults. Has been raised with cats dogs cows horses pigs chickens & goats. But he is not good with chickens if they get in his area. That is why he needs a new home. He is a lovable dog sweet as they come. Great with my grandkids & their friends. A fenced yard is a must, he is a big dog & needs room to run.

Hi, I'm Yollie. I was found running around in traffic on 71 Highway. Running in traffic isn't the best idea I've had but what else was there to do. I had no family, no friends, no one who cared about me. That's what I always wanted and really need - a family. I would be a great family pet to those with no other pets. With people I'm friendly, gentle, and not too demanding. I still like to jump fences so I'll need a home with a tall privacy fence that I can't climb. I promise I'll be the dog of your dreams. Do you have a little room in your heart to love me?

Anatolian Shepherds have long been valued by herdsmen for their ability to best wolves in a fight. Anatolian Shepherds are very closely related, some say identical, to the Kangal, which is the national dog of Turkey. Exporting Kangal dogs from Turkey involves so many restrictions that it is effectively outlawed. Anatolian Shepherds have such strong herding instincts that they will treat other household pets as their flock and become very protective of them.
